The wolf was shocked, and almost blurted out, as soon as he opened his mouth, it was a pile of sand to pour in, so he quickly closed his mouth and said in ventriloquism: "Miss Qu, you can't help it, this Taizu bag is related to the lives of your Wushan faction, and it must not be leaked." ”

Qu Caifeng said in a deep voice: "Li Cangxing, I have thought it through, it is definitely not a spur of the moment, I believe that you are a real chivalrous warrior, and you will never be able to bring disaster to the world, the current situation is not very good, you and I may not be able to leave this place alive, in order to ensure that the Wushan faction will not be eliminated by Yan Song and Lu Bing after my death, I can only tell you this secret, if I really die, you must live to keep this secret." And you have to promise me that you will never put the lives of the Wushan faction in danger for your own selfish interests, can you do it? ”

Heavenly Wolf sighed and said: "This responsibility is too heavy, I don't want to bear it, but this matter may bring down Yan Song and crack his entire conspiracy, for the sake of this, I promise you, but if you can also leave this place alive, then I will never move a finger of this Taizu Secret." ”

Qu Caifeng said faintly: "Li Cangxing, you listen well, that Taizu bag is not something else, but a secret edict, the edict orders that the military households in the world should be free, and each household will be given ten acres to one hundred hectares of land according to the different military status, if you don't want to be a military household, you can take this land and make a living for yourself." ”

The heavenly wolf was stunned all of a sudden, and almost let go of Qu Caifeng's hand, but immediately felt Qu Caifeng's breath weaken again, and hurriedly grabbed her hand again, and whispered: "What the hell is going on?" This is said to be able to seize the world's Taizu Tips. How could it be such an edict? ”

Qu Caifeng sighed: "At first, even my master didn't understand, but later Lu Bing once made it clear to his master, saying that this is the foundation of my dynasty." It is the military household system established by Taizu when he established the Ming Dynasty. ”

"At the beginning of my Ming Dynasty, there were millions of soldiers, sweeping the world, but after the founding of the country, the placement of these million soldiers became a headache, and all dynasties, in the middle and late stages. It is difficult to recruit a soldier, and the world has been peaceful for a long time, and there is no more to fight. ”

"Hongwu Taizu is wise and martial. A brilliant solution came up with that was to let all these millions of soldiers be converted into military registration and stay in the barracks, but they did not have to farm and pay rent like ordinary farmers. ”

"It's just that the world is safe. At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there was no external trouble. Raising these millions of soldiers is really a heavy burden on the country, so Taizu reformed the military system and took out a part of the land as military land, and the guards and soldiers usually undertake the task of farming, and they do not need to pay taxes, they only need to feed themselves. You can support yourself. ”

"Back then, Emperor Taizu proudly said to his ministers that I don't need a penny from the state. But it can raise millions of male soldiers. At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, this method was really good. ”

"It's just that with the passage of time, this system has begun to gradually collapse, Li Cangxing, you should know that the military household of this guard is hereditary, after Lao Tzu is old, his son is still a military household, and he has to serve in the army for generations, and the country has been peaceful for a long time, and military training has begun to be abolished, except for the nine-sided area in the north, a large number of inland guards are in vain, and when the country was founded, it was still a year and six months of training, six months of farming, and now, I am afraid that there is no training time for even six days a year, and it has become an old farmer who has simply become a farmer."

"Ordinary people plant their own fields, plant ten catties of rice, and after paying three or four catties of rent, they can still keep half of it for their own use, so that although they live a poor life, they have a hope, and those guards, no matter how much grain they plant, will be scavenged away without a grain left, leaving only a meager ration enough to make ends meet, and there are no seeds. Now, those officers of the year have become landlords, and those big-headed hills have become even slaves. ”

Tian Wolf heard this in one breath, he had also heard Lu Bing mention this military household system, and he knew how much the hardships of some ordinary military households, but he didn't talk about it so thoroughly, and after listening to Qu Caifeng's words today, he suddenly realized and said: "I see, in this way, this order to allow military households to freely transfer nationality is really an out-and-out benevolent government, but there are still two problems, one is that so many soldiers have turned into farmers, so who will enlist in the army?" Second, if so many people are to be allowed to become peasant households, even the lowest soldiers can get ten acres of land for each family, where will these tens of millions of acres of cultivated land come from? ”

Qu Caifeng smiled slightly: "This is the wisdom of Taizu, the ancestral system he established back then, said that the imperial land of the royal family does not need to pay taxes, and the fields of scholars do not need to pay taxes, so in the past hundred years, half of the fields in the world have been in the hands of the royal family and scholars, and countless poor people can only sell their fields and rent these fields, these are what you told me in the desert, how did you forget yourself?" ”

Heavenly Wolf's heart moved: "So what Taizu means is to let these military families go to divide the fields of the royal family and scholars?" How is this possible? Didn't that instigate the people of the world to rebel against his old Zhu family? ”

Qu Caifeng sighed: "The mystery is here, this kind of secret decree, it is impossible to count it with just one trick, Taizu left three secret decrees, hidden in the palace archives in Nanjing, that is, three times can allow the military households after the army to take out the lost in the battle for the throne and the scholars and doctors to take out the land and distribute it." ”

"Since the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the three secret decrees have been used twice, one is the Jingyan battle of Chengzu Zhu Di's army, when he went to Nanjing City to meet Emperor Jianwen, he sent the world's first master, but also his number one adviser, Yao Guangxiao, known as the black-clothed prime minister, according to the Taizu bag in his hand, infiltrated the archives, and obtained the first secret decree, and it was by virtue of this appeal to turn the army into a farmer, Chengzu directly exempted the military household of the Mongolian Duoyan Sanwei who was still attached to our dynasty at that time, and let it go, so the Mongolian Sanwei was grateful to Chengzu, For its lethal effect, it was precisely by relying on these elite and fierce Mongolian cavalry that Cheng Zu advanced all the way, and finally conquered Nanjing and achieved the imperial cause. ”

"It's just that after Chengzu took the world, he didn't plan to keep the remaining two secret decrees, nor did he plan to fully fulfill the promise of canceling the military status of all military households, so when he captured Nanjing, the first thing he did was to arrest Emperor Jianwen, and the second thing was to send someone to destroy this secret file."

"It's just that people are not as good as heaven, Emperor Jianwen later learned about the secret decree, and also got the remaining two secret decrees from the hands of the old palace people, when Chengzu played the banner of the Qing monarch's side, not to remove the faint monarch, so he didn't want to kill Emperor Jianwen with his own hands, just wanted to wait for him to surrender to Chan, or commit suicide, but Emperor Jianwen chose a way that he never dreamed of, and fled from the path with those two secret decrees."

"After Chengzu, he regretted it, and for many years he has been sending Jinyi Wei to track down the whereabouts of Emperor Jianwen, and even heard that he fled overseas, and also sent his henchman eunuch Zheng He to the West seven times to find Emperor Jianwen, and he wanted to recover the two secret decrees, after all, these two secret decrees are legitimate coup edicts, and Chengzu relied on this to win the world, but he did not want his descendants to be used by others to seize the throne."

The Heavenly Wolf sighed: "I can't imagine that there are so many twists and turns in the Battle of Jingjing. Later, Chengzu Zhu Di became very animalistic, killed the ministers of Emperor Jianwen, and even exterminated Fang Xiaoru's ten clans, which must also be a move to trace down Taizu's unobtainable anger. ”

Qu Caifeng said in a deep voice: "Yes, that's right, Zhu Di is cruel and tyrannical, and he doesn't believe in his words, when he kidnapped his brother, Ning Wang Zhu Quan, and relied on the secret decree of Taizu, he rebelled against Zhu Quan's Mongolian Duoyan Sanwei, who had the strongest combat effectiveness, and after winning the world, he weighed the advantages and gave the Mongols a heavy reward, relieved them of their military household status, and allowed them to rely on the Great Wall and graze freely, but they did not have to serve in the army for generations as before, and for the military households in the Guannai, they did not remove their military household status, It is still hereditary. ”

"As a result, after these Mongols were free, they began to collude with the old forces of the original Northern Yuan who fled north to the desert, and more than 50 years later, the remnants of the Northern Yuan, the Mongolian Warat Taishi also took the Mongolian Duoyan Sanwei as the front, conquered Xuanfu Datong, and hit the city of Beijing.
